WHO WE ARE
If you’re from Cleveland (and it’s neighborhood of Collinwood), we’re your neighbors. The Home/Share was founded by Marlene, Don, & Robert as a one-stop location for the support of everything that empowers a community:
Space to gather (in safer times, large numbers)
Access to our local resources and connections
Co-working resources for business startups & entrepreneurs
Quick-serve breakfast & lunch while on the move during your work day
While the Home/Share was started in 2020, we’ve been working in the Greater Collinwood area since 2005 to provide support, care, and resources to our community. We found that our neighbors only needed the same access other areas had to empower themselves, and our mission was borne from our interest to provide that however we could.
More information coming soon!
2020 has been a year, for all of us.
We planned on opening our space for all of Greater Cleveland, but due to the pandemic we’ve been thoughtful about how to launch a public space based business. We are excited to formally reveal and launch a number of programs and offerings in 2021, with a better eye towards public safety; it does us no good to open and possibly harm the public health of our community.
Online offerings, a web-based Marketplace, and retooled (smaller-scale) events are on the horizon, in addition to our daily UPS and mailing offerings. We appreciate your patience!
At our previous location (818 East 185th)
We launched at GamerHaven, located at 818 East 185th. Fortunate to have supported and worked with some of our city’s best and most enterprising groups and companies, we learned how to support a community’s important moments, connect to institutions & stakeholders, and take our experiences to create a singular space that provided everything we saw necessary to empower our members and neighborhood. The below gallery is a cross-section of events that happened at our first brick-and-mortar space.
